Notes
  • Significance: The St. Paul, Minneapolis and Manitoba Railway, a predecessor of the Great Northern Railway, was the third railroad to enter Montana and, in conjunction with its subsidiary, the Montana Central, affected rate competition in the transportation market from 1889-1896. After 1893, the Great Northern itself (not particularly this segment) provided transcontinental rail service to the northern tier, facilitating the growth and development of high plains dry-land agriculture.
